Help audio noob
So I am ok with electrical but know almost nothing about audio except the basics. I have an old but new PPI PCX 5800 amp. I had a 6600 ( I think it was) that blew out and got this as a warranty replacement years ago and never put it in anything. Hoping some of you guys are familiar with this amp and can both recommend some budget friendly speakers that match this amp and tips on installing myself.
The car is a 70 Camaro. My initial thoughts are some sort of speaker in the doors, 6x9s in the deck and a single 10 or 12 either in the trunk or decklid mount if possible. My music preference is all over the map but mostly various types of rock music. I'm not looking for big old car rattling boom bass. I like it clean crisp and hard hitting. I recall my old amp running a couple jl audio 10w0 subs that I was happy with.
So guys please help me set this up. I would like to avoid going to a shop to have it completed but I will bite the bullet if that's what it seems I should do. If more details are needed I will answer any questions the best I can. I will even ditch the amp if it's not worth it but would like to use it to build off of and I'm not married to any particular size or make of speakers. My only requirement is that this is done with budget in mind. Not cheapest possible, more like best value for the dollar stuff.Mike A
